]]>To celebrate the BBC One series Sherlock’s 10th anniversary, Moffatt and Gattis got together to answer fan questions. One fan took the opportunity to ask who they would like to see playing Sherlock of he was a woman.
The question saw the creators listing off an exciting list of names. To kick it off, Moffatt suggested Michelle Gomez and Gatiss suggested Fleabag‘s Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
Moffatt mentioned Olivia Coleman next and Killing Eve‘s Jodie Comer was mentioned by the TV producer, Sue Vertue.
Moffat then went on to explain why casting a woman to play Sherlock would not require many alterations to the character.
“I think we could sit here [and] generate quite a lot of names of female Sherlock Holmes,” he said. “I think that part would go female very easily. I don’t think you have to do anything. Change the pronouns and you don’t even have to change the name. Sherlock Holmes could be a woman quite easily. “
“You know what I get stuck on?” he adds. “Who is John Watson as a woman? I find that slightly harder to think of that kind of performance.”

]]>The Emmy award-winning series has completed 3 seasons since premiering in 2010, with no word on whether a 4th will come to fruition.
Martin, who stars as the beloved Dr. Watson, told the publication, “Being in that show, it is a mini-Beatles thing. People’s expectations, some of it’s not fun anymore. It’s not a thing to be enjoyed, it’s a thing of: ‘You better f–ing do this, otherwise, you’re a c–.’ That’s not fun anymore.”
When The Telegraph asked Sherlock himself for comment on the remarks and Benedict Cumberbatch was not impressed.
“It’s pretty pathetic if that’s all it takes to let you not want to take a grip of your reality,” he said. “What, because of expectations? I don’t know. I don’t necessarily agree with that… There’s a level of obsession where [the franchise] becomes [the fans’] even though we’re the ones making it. But I just don’t feel affected by that in the same way, I have to say.”
Elementary, my dear Watson.
